Immediate post valve deployment, mild Perivalvular Leak (PVL) was noticed at the septal aspect (area of incomplete annuloplasty ring). Eighteen months later, patient presented with recurrent right heart failure and paracentesis due to severe tricuspid PVL (Figure 1A-C, Video 1). Percutaneous PVL closure under general anesthesia, Trans-esophageal Echocardiography (TEE) was performed. Via femoral venous access, defect was easily crossed with Agilis steerable sheath, multipurpose catheter and 0.035” glide wire. Despite recurrent attempts, wire came through the PVL but then traversed through open cells of S3 into the right ventricle (Figure 2A), confirmed with Armada 6mm balloon waist at the S3 cage (Figure 2B) (despite inflating 28mm Z med balloon inside S3 cage, Figure 2C). We decided to partially deploy the plug and assess valve function. Using 7.5F Asahi Eaucath multipurpose guide, a 12mm AmplatzerTM Vascular plug II (AVP II) was advanced through the defect. The ventricular disc was opened inside the S3 cage while body in the PVL defect (outside the S3 cage) and atrial disc on the atrial side of PVL (Figure 3A-B). With S3 function unaffected, no central leak and minimal gradient, PVL reduced to mild severity (Figure 4A-D, Video 2); the AVP II was successfully deployed (Figure 5). At 3-month follow up, there was an excellent symptomatic improvement (NYHA functional class I), with no heart failure re-hospitalization or paracentesis. Deployment of plug disc inside the valve frame is not recommended due to fear of interference with leaflet function and possible injury in long term. There was no immediate issue with the valve function in this case (due to space between the leaflet and frame of S3 and depends on size of plug used). Valve-in-Valve (S3-in-S3) would have certainly sealed all open cells treating this PVL but is more expensive option.","PeriodicalId":93339,"journal":{"name":"MOJ clinical & medical case reports","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67083528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the characteristics of the cognitive network and evidence from different clinical and experimental studies, infarction in this critical part of the anterior thalamic nucleus can cause disruption of basal ganglia-thalamo-prefrontal circuit, resulting in confusion and cognitive decline.

The most common form is epithelial carcinoma. As a result of its location, and its silent nature responsible for a delay in diagnosis that makes the prognosis rather poor. The usual metastatic sites are the peritoneal cavity, liver and lung. Secondary biliary localization is a rare, even exceptional site. We report the observation of a patient who presented with abdominal pain in the right hypochondrium and progressive vomiting. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a 21 mm gallbladder lithiasis with hepatic steatosis. Abdominal CT scan revealed a large heterogeneous mass with engulfed gallstones. The patient underwent cholecystectomy. Histological study showed moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma and acute cholecystitis. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that the tumor cells were positive for antibodies against CK7, WT1, PAX8 and p53 and negative for CK20 and ER. These results suggest that the tumor was a metastasis of serous ovarian adenocarcinoma. Medical imaging done with abdominal CT showed an ovarian mass with peritoneal carcinosis, serum CA125 was elevated at 97U/ml. Carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels were normal. The patient received first-line chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel. After 6 courses of therapy, she achieved a partial clinical, biological and radiological response, in our medical oncology department of the CHU Hassan II from Fez. The interest of the subject is to report the rarity of this entity as well as the radiological, histopathological, prognostic and therapeutic characteristics.","PeriodicalId":93339,"journal":{"name":"MOJ clinical & medical case reports","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67083177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, the mortality is high at up to 60% when ruptured. Ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysms commonly present with overt abdominal pain and systemic instability. They can also present with symptoms of pelvic organ dysfunction, such as urinary retention or obstipation. This report describes the first case of a ruptured internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysm masquerading as a reducible inguinal hernia. It was diagnosed on a Computed Tomography scan, which showed a large contained ruptured right IIA aneurysm with extension of haemorrhage through the hernia sac. He underwent an endovascular procedure to exclude the aneurysm that was uncomplicated, and he had an uneventful recovery. It highlights the importance of considering IIA aneurysms as differentials for abdominal masses, groin lumps or vague symptoms of pelvic organ dysfunction. Thorough exploration of the history and careful examination will help flag these diagnoses in our clinical assessment.","PeriodicalId":93339,"journal":{"name":"MOJ clinical & medical case reports","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67083349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
